The "misinformation" in question here is that gender-affirming care reduces suicides among youth. It merely reduces depression, anxiety, self-harm and suicidal ideation. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Perhaps I've missed others, but Zack Polanski is literally the only British politician I've heard on mainstream media give a vaguely serious response to this 'controversy'. It's really been a trip through the looking-glass today.

Seriously. You know who has *great* messaging? Cancer researchers! Literally curing cancer! Sells itself! Still got fed to the DOGE woodchipper. FEMA and the National Weather Service got fed to the DOGE woodchipper, too. Nobody thought poorly of them until the right did the thing they always do.

This is what's so frightening about the power of the anti-trans movement: a very small, but very well connected group of really extreme and hateful people have managed to put themselves in the center of all decisions about trans people, even to the exclusion of trans people themselves.

Being “for free speech” means 1) not supporting state censorship of any books, newspapers, or stations because we disagree with the viewpoints on them, including blasphemy. 2) supporting the rights of private bookstores, networks, playoffs, & publishers not to carry “lawful but awful” speech.
